    This is a function of the client (the program that connects to the
    MOO), not the MOO itself.  A telnet window is basically a dumb window
    onto the MOO and is intended for single user sorts of things what do
    not involve other competing processes.  You should get any of a number
    of 'moo client' programs that solve this quite nicely.  I'm using
    emacs, there is 'tinyFugue', there's tkMOO-lite (nifty cuz it's
    written in Tcl/Tk) and quite a number of clients for the PC (windows
    and such)  All the above are easily found in the Internet.
